@hippyjoe1955 Joe he has a speech impediment ,he used to stutter
It has been mistaken for mental health problems ,but I assure you he did not get this far and hasn't been checked out .

@rckt148 His dementia is not stuttering. I do know the difference. I witnessed family members go down that long dark tunnel to where they can't even remember to swallow the food in their mouth. Truly a nasty illness. Don't wish it on my worst enemy. However saying Joe's dementia is stuttering is being dishonest.

@hippyjoe1955 I my friend have not only seen it take family members down
I worked for Vocational Rehab ,I have been a care giver ,most of my family is in law enforcement ,somehow employed in the sea food industry or they are health givers .
Joe may take more time to speak ,get tongue tied .
But he did not get where he is with a mental illness .
Not even Trump haters would allow that .
He is still running for commander and chief
1/3 of the government totally under his control .and the military

@rckt148 Dementia is age related. My cousin was a brilliant engineer who designed fuel cells for the military. Incredibly smart man. He now has dementia and can't remember where he lives.

@hippyjoe1955 Brother I know how it works ,and how fast it can come on someone .
But I am telling you .Joe is still sharp .
And he does not get credit for all of his accomplishments ,some Trump has taken the credit for ,we forget the shape the country was in when he and Obama took office
And in spite of grid lock ,they still got Obama care passed that Trump was unable to replace like he said he could ,so though people might complain about it ,they didn't vote to replace it .
But do people seriously think you can run for that office and not be vetted
and have to prove some type of competency ?

@rckt148 Joe can't string a sentence together without a teleprompter and too often confuses what is on the teleprompter. Look I wish old Joe was a sharp as you seem to think. I hate to see anyone with dementia. However the other day Joe got confused about some policy he was talking about and excused himself by saying "I'm taking too much time here". Too much time to explain a simple policy that he himself could not understand or explain? Joe Biden has dementia.

@hippyjoe1955 Well my friend ,we will see .(And please forgive me ,I do respect you're opinion even if I disagree )
I am so sick of lies and bragging ,but when we need him he is not there ,
And his BS ,,"this is a hoax and will soon go away has not cost me someone I love .
You can put a pile of dung on the platform ,it gets my vote .
At least in this election I won't feel bad writing in "Micky Mouse "
We are limited on options ,,so Joe gets my vote .
Let Trump get back to what he says he is good at ,,
I know real estate brokers too ,,most are liars ,they only care about the sell .
How that will work with all the secret service agents from here out (and since I have been on PSD ,,Presidential Security Detail ..I know how that will be ).
but thats the job he signed on for .

@rckt148 So you would rather have "I'm taking too much time here" instead of someone who is actually defending the US and might I add extremely effectively. How many wars has Trump started? How was the jobs market before covid? How was the stock market? What can we say team demoncrap has your number.

@hippyjoe1955 Brother we could debate where that economic recovery began but I am not going to .
we could debate where removing restrictions on the EPA to get jobs to come back was headed ,but I am not going to .(Coal nor Steal is impressed with him )
And if he was as awesome and prepared as he said ,pre covid ,we would not be leading the world in cases and death ,but I am not debating that either .
I am so tired of the division ,foremost and that is all the last 4 years has been .
and why are we not at war ? we got out of Putins way and let him invade where he wanted to ,,and defended criminals .
I know now the story is ,"Was the FISA warrants legit that sent so many close to the President to jail ,pay off's ,and flat out criminal activity ,,the same stuff we screamed "Lock her up over " .
Had the Democrats waited ,and had the supreme court enforce their subpoena's
(Which I did not support trying to unseat a sitting President )
And people with first hand knowledge and the whistle blowers had testified .
It may have been a lot less margin then 2 or 3 votes to save him .
Lindsey Graham frosts my butt even more ,,
Was jumping up and down to impeach Clinton over a BJ ,,(lying to the Grand Jury under oath ) but that is why Trump would have never testified ,,He knows they would have hanged him out to dry ,,,
But as a rule I totally avoid politics as I have seen it divide families since Trump became President ,,
I would not want that for my legacy ,,I divided the nation ,
"A house divided against itself will fall" .Jesus Christ .
And we see ,,it only took a virus to change it all .
I fear for my Grandkids future ,I already know the worst is yet to come .
and whoever is in office ,will not alter whats coming .

@rckt148 If you think I am a fan of either Lindsey or Bill you have me dead wrong. Was never a fan of McCain either. However the fact is the POTUS who ever he is is very limited as to what can be done in the states. S Dakota never shut down while NY did. No president could have forced them to do different.
rckt148 · 61-69, M
@hippyjoe1955 He could have declared a state of emergency and shut them all down .
I am not ignorant as to what he can and can't do .
During Katrina they locked our city down .
National Guard rolled in ,there was no looting ,breaking into homes
and 1 person per family went to a distribution center and the national guard loaded MRE 's and Ice in you're car ,you never got out .
2 meals a day per person ,toilet paper ,a drink (they also gave out water and cleaning supplies )and 2 snacks or deserts a day ..we lived ,this went on almost 3 weeks .
Had he did the exact same thing ,made it mandatory to stay in ,,
In 14 days we would have known who was sick and who wasn't .no testing required
The sick could have got treatment ,the rest of the country could have gone back to
work ,school and church and little impact on the economy ,they even paid us $1.200,00 to stay home ..this would have been long contained by now .
The country is under fire ,,citizens chanting death to pigs .
That is an insurrection and allows the President to use our troops to restore civil order ,,but all he did was threaten ,,
I am a Vet ,I know what we can do ,,and No one can convince me we can take down a country ,kill its leaders ,,but we can't bring peace back to a mostly unarmed citizens out to show they have power ,let them kill innocent people ,burn down businesses owned by blacks and whites they will never rebuild .
Had it been a revolution as some claim it was ,,they would have disbursed it so quick it made you're head swim .
But he only yells "Executive order " when its him trying to show he is king .
Now even that ship won't float ,,its sinking
But knowing Donald ,I am not counting him out ,it would not surprise me if he gets 4 more years ,,the nation is so evenly divided ,its 4 more years of the same ole same ole .

@rckt148 If you think a state of emergency over a cold is warranted then I guess you live on a different planet than I do. The US incentivized over reporting of covid so the hospitals did. Granny Grunt got hit by three semis and a train on the way home but in the morgue they found covid on her clothes therefore her death was classified as covid related.
